    So I guess ping is a hacking tool now too huh?

    Does ping have the potential to lead you almost directly to a potential attack path? Because Sherlock can.

    There isn’t a fuckdamn single drop of intellectual honesty in any of these comments.

    Well what the fuck would I know? I’ve only been a pentester/red teamer for 8 fucking years.

    Hey, wanna know what’s by far the most useful tool in a red teamer/attacker’s arsenal?

    A fucking notepad!

    Because the process isn’t about tapping a few fucking buttons and you’ve hacked into the mainframe. You gather information. You make links. You poke and prod at stuff. You try to keep a low profile while you also try to figure out where your objective is. Then, and only then, you make a final plan and go for the objective.
